    I get that she’s an English major, but how is that an excuse to not know that cameras typically have a flash so they can illuminate the object being photographed?

        Philosophical shithead here!

        A 15,000,000,000,000 bulb, of course!

        But how could we know that that object illuminated by a 15,000,000,000,000 Lumen bulb is even real? For all you know, that massive object illuminated by a 15,000,000,000,000 Lumen bulb could be a fiction, a simple 15,000,000,000,000 Lumen shadow upon the wall!

      I feel like this needs a /s because people might be dumb enough to actually think a flash of some sort was used to capture these images.
